Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah preserve you, how does one determine the direction of the qiblah using the stars?
Answer:
Yes, one determines the qiblah by them, because they move from east to west. The constellation moves from east to west. A person can determine the direction by them: if it is in the east, he knows the direction of the east; if it is in the west, he knows the direction of the west. Yes.
